The term “scientific magazine” involves publication-diversified journals. There are monographs among them, described also as “survey
journals” which concern concrete fields of knowledge. Their task is to popularize the newest scientific achievements. Apart from them, we
can also find journals in which scientific research can be found, and the results of the research are often inspiring for the next scientific
experimenters. What is more, there are also magazines which combine both models, i.e. periodicals in which both scientific and survey
research are published. The exact kind of a scientific journal is irrelevant though, as each of them is the notion of information, integrates the
environment and allows a given scientific discipline to be popularized and improved.
The aim of the given thesis is to show the development of professional periodical press concerning nursing care. The analysis of writing
sources is the scientific technique used in the work, including the analysis of non-serial publications and biographical articles.
